Lure & Fly Fishing For Barramundi *exclusive - Located 80km east of Bangkok in the Bangpakong district of the Chachoengsao province; Boon Mar Ponds are set deep in the lush, green fields of Thailand�s peaceful countryside. The ponds were originally formed for the purpose of barramundi fish farming; distributing fresh, healthy farm bred barramundi across the country. Set over a vast area of land with easy access to each pond it was only a matter of time before the flat, grassy banks of Boon Mar Ponds was open for fishing with the Fish Thailand Team!
Boon Mar Ponds without doubt offers the most prolific & exhilarating barramundi fishing in Thailand. Boon Mar Ponds is Fish Thailand�s number 1 venue for world class barramundi fishing in Thailand.

Boon Mar ponds consists of 30 man made ponds varying in size from 0.5 acres upto 3 acres, all of which have relatively even depths of around 2 meters each. Each pond has an abundance of species, the most predominant and worthy of all being of course the world famous, prestigious and sought after � barramundi.

However each pond fishes slightly differently from the next, varying factors which distinguish each pond other than its size are the size of the barramundi, the location of feeding fish and in turn the lure or fly patterns and sizes most appropriate.

The �novice� anglers� ponds are smaller in area and hold a larger stocking density of smaller barramundi averaging between 2lb-5lb. Our guides use these �novice� ponds as practice grounds to teach the novice angler a number of essential skills before moving upto the specimen ponds.

The majority of ponds at the Boon Mar complex hold an average size barramundi of 10lb-12lb, and with fish growing as big as 26lb these specimen pools simply offers the best barramundi fishing in Thailand.

LURE FISHING FOR BARRAMUNDI

Lure fishing and especially lure casting is an active technique that is very addictive. Roaming the banks of Boon Mar ponds locating the hideouts and territories of the barramundi is as much like hunting as it is fishing.

The Barramundi at Boon Mar Ponds provide exhilarating sport on lures. Each pond situated on this site�s complex varies in difficulty level, offering the novice and professional lure angler alike a stimulating fishing experience. Barramundi are great to catch on lures; their leaping fight is exhilarating and their strength renowned.

We supply each angler with a full armory of specialist lure fishing equipment. Our lure rods coupled with braid-loaded fixed spool reels ensure every twitch, pull & jerk of the lure is felt to the extent that it prints a clear mental picture of how the lure is acting beneath the surface. Our guides will point out the most appropriate choice of lure from our enormous collection to suit the day�s conditions.

FLY FISHING FOR BARRAMUNDI

Devoted fly fisherman usually have a mental list of �fish I must catch on the fly in my lifetime,� and the Fish Thailand Team knows too well that barramundi is certainly on that list � if not claiming the top spot!

Boon Mar Ponds could not be any more perfect for fly fishing for barramundi � the bankside is clear of tall-growing vegetation and the tree line is set well back from the margins as not to obstruct the back-cast. A long cast is also not essential as the barramundi often favour holding up close to the margins, therefore also being the perfect place for novice fly anglers to get to grips with the fine art of fly fishing.

Fly fishing is a wonderful, elegant and highly skilful form of fishing no matter what the target specie may be. But fly fishing for barramundi has to be one of the most adrenaline rushing experiences to be had at the end of a fly rod, with the barramundi giving plenty of acrobatic aerial action. Every head shake, flip of the tail or spurt of thrust is magnified through a fly rod and into your fingers � this coupled with the spirit of fishing in Thailand makes for memories to last a lifetime.

Usually barramundi fishing can be a difficult challenge for any angler using even conventional techniques; this challenge and difficulty factor is multiplied for fly anglers. However the fly angler has no better chance than at Boon Mar Ponds with our guides, everything about this venue is screaming out for fly anglers to enjoy the rare opportunity of experiencing the power of catching barramundi on fly tackle.

YOUNG ANGLERS

The up-and-coming younger generation of our fabulous sport also have the opportunity to practice their skills and develop new skills from the Fish Thailand Team. The ponds are relatively snag free, eliminating the frustration of continual snap-offs. Lure fishing is an exhilarating and effective technique for barramundi fishing with the bonus of limited tangles!

For the novice lure angler there are smaller ponds with a higher stocking level of smaller barramundi averaging between 2lb � 5lb. This stamp of juvenile fish are more willing to strike at lures retrieved with less precision; and while these fish provide rod bending action full of aerial displays � they don�t have the stamina to cause the novice too many problems. Our guides typically use these easier ponds to help novice lure anglers develop their casting, retrieving & playing skills.
